All four arr roots live: /tv, /movies via API; /music, /books created after
v1 validator layers peeled back (quality/metadata profile ids must reference
existing profiles; v1 has no /api/v1/profile endpoint). Auth pitfall: the
literal AuthenticationRequired=Disabled string throws DryIoc.ScopedItemException
in v1 AuthorizationMiddleware on every request — the valid no-auth state is
ABSENCE of the key. Fixed live on four containers, verified boot clean.
Sonarr/Radarr root folders created via API (201). Lidarr/Readarr deferred to
first-run wizard (v1 validators demand quality-profile ids that don't exist
yet). Root cause of the write failures: LSIO PUID=1000 under rootless podman
maps to host uid 101000 — a phantom user owning nothing; PUID=0 maps to the
host user that owns every media dir.
Verified live: indexers->Prowlarr->per-arr QBittorrent download clients with
category routing. Readarr's client parked (qB proxy auth defect in abandoned
upstream). EZTV/1337x parked with reason (CloudFlare-blocked at this egress);
Nyaa/sukebei/RuTor/Byrutor/YTS passed live tests and are enabled. Prowlarr v2
Applications rows now carry real arr baseUrl+apiKeys; before this every sync
attempt threw NullConfig in GetIndexerMappings.
Verified live: AuthenticationMethod=None + AuthenticationRequired=Enabled on
all five arrs; unauthenticated API probes return 401 both locally and through
the vhosts. Also records the as-built divergences (entropy mounts, LA timezone,
readarr tag pin, prowlarr mount fix) that supersede the design compose.
All in-repo path references (AGENTS.md, README, old scripts, report artifacts,
test code paths) rewritten in the same commit; focused-test map extended for
.gitignore, old/scripts/*, dankclaw/comfyui/*, and report/* per this repo's
own convention ('add one before committing'). Obsidian wikilinks are
title-based and unaffected.
